Trust me, throwing people that disliked DmC into a bag of "Stupid kids that just disliked his black hair" is rather insulting.

And if Dante was to die in a good way, setting the future for Nero/V, people would be happy with it, if done right. Trust me, DMC fans arent as immature as you think.... I didn't say every DMC fan is immature, but a good chunk of them are. I'm one of the guys who didn't like that junk but at least I tried playing it. I'm speaking from experience when I say the majority of my gamer aquaintances ditched that game because they mostly didn't like how Dante looked. This same bunch also ditched MVC:I coz there weren't any mutants in it. Point is the sales. A lot of people, usually the non-fans, critique the game by face value without even trying it.

Another point is the absence of a well liked character. Remember MVC:I? Lotsa people boycotted that game because there weren't any mutants, but they aren't even Marvel's only popular superheroes. The death and absence of Dante may cause sales to skyrocket much like how it did for the absence of mutants in MvC:I regardless of how well written his death is.
